To Whom it Mose Concerns. In last week's issue of the Slocan City News, in what was purported to be a report of the 24th of May celebration at Silverton, appeared one of the most scurruloua, abusive, uncalled fbr personal vituperations for which any journal In Kootenay has yet been responsible. Had the article mentioned appeared in any other publication It might have reflected harmfully on the young gentleman attacked, but the notorious rottenness of the News, and the well- known gentlemanly demeanor and good character of Mr. J. S Gusty is of itself sufficient evidence that the article waa, to say the least of it, a piece of vandalism and personal spleen of the lowest order. We regret that such a thing should occur. We regret tbe<*cca* ion which Becessitates a reply to aay such ill-timed article. But we take pleasure In making that reply. In Kootenay there are, unfortunately, as yet no amateur athletic organizations of any consequence Of necessity, then, on such occasion. as the Silverton celebration, the prises offered for athletics are not championships or honorary association distinctions such as would be tendered by such organisations, hut cash prizes. Such being tbe case, a certain tangible Inducement is thereby offered such psueJo*-athletes''as those hailing frojn 8Iocan City to indulge in some most nefarious practices which aay admirer of clean and honorable athletics should he ashamed to countenance. J. 8. Gusty did not go to Silverton under the impression that he was an all-around athlete, although, as the prise Uat bears ample testimony, he won a very good proportion of the prises. Neither did, be go there with tbe intent of indulging Iu any crooked practice, thereby gouging the public and betraying his friends. If he frustrated such a plan of the Slocan city ������athletes-' it was not the fault of those aame '���athletes." If his friends offered wagers on the events of the day it waabecau*** tneyhad a fair confidence In his ability; not because they were eon federates In a crooked race, aa waa too evidently the esse witb some parties from Slocan City. Mr. Gusty s friends of Sandon still have that confidence In bis ability to defeat aay obc of Slocan City's representatives in an all-around athletic contest. If those gentlemen of Slocan Cky have a spark of that element of true sportsmanship to which they so ostentatiously lay claim, * friendly contest can very easily be arranged. Any fair contest that would be satisfactory tu them would be suitable to 8andon's representative. Aay am- oust of money which they would choow so wager could easily be covered is 8andon. Any time or piece which would be suitable to them would satisfy our Sandon athlete* We would respectfully suggest that a match be Arranged to take pine* in Sandon on Dominion Dny. Every one concerned would be accorded fair and courteous treatment, and every facility aflbrded so that the better man might win. This article Is not a bluff. Neither to it a roast. The Patotukak has no reason to apologise fbr anything here contained. It Is not inspired by any of the parties concerned. It to a candid eipressiun of the opinion of the people of Sandon, who have never yet had m take a buck seat to anyone tn matters pertaining to pure sports. And, moreover, it ia business. If tbe 8loean City people believe that they have the better man let them produce the collateral. II they have not tbe courage of their convictions let them muzzle the New* editor and shut np about athletics fcr all time to coma. CHURCH NOTICES.

A correspondent in England has the following letter In a London paper: Permit me to observe that the home investor does not seem to be aware of the potentialities ot tbe silver mines in British Columbia. Next to Klon- dyke, tbe Rossland district only has atrscted attention, and the English companies promoted, with one or two prominent exceptions, have confined their operations to the reputed gold camps. It may be heresy to talk hopefully ot silver, yet I believe thst the richest properties in the Province are in the Slocan, where a friend writes me the proportion of profitable properties is fifteen or twenty to one in Rossland. Tbe Gslena fiaac j may have prejudiced the public here, but years back American prospectors recognised the value of quartz min ing and the immense silver-lead deposits, and where the British mining speculator or promoter now fears to tread our Yankee cousin isenjoyinjr a real good thing. Compare a gold mine yielding, say, $30 to the ton, or ��6, with a galena proposition regularly -returning from GO oz to LOO ox. of silver and up to 50 snd 60 percent of good lead, besides copper possibly. Is that a contemptible average where the cost of working is relatively small? With bar silver below2s. per ox. standard, surely there is more money in one ton of silver-lead ore than lo four tons of low grade gold- bearing stuff; and I know of many reliable men who on that account prefer the Slocan to Trail Creek." It is surprising bow small things count up. Tbe exchange on a bink cheque is 25 cents on a hundred dollars. This Is a trifling amount and aaa rule we do not notice it, but if some day we get a cheque on Toronto for u million the exchange would loom up In a more substantial manner and we could not afford to pay it. Owing to this we will not accept cheques of that denomination unless the exchange is added. embraces an srea of :&5iC,0C0 square miles, including its water surface, or very little less than tbe area of the United States with Alaska, or a re glon measuring 3,500 miles from east to west and 1,400 miles from north to south. The magnificent valley through which the St. Lawrence river flows from tbe lakes. to the ocean, is now tbe home of prosperous, energetic and intelligent communities, one of which was founded nearly three centuries ago. A remarkable system of waterways, consisting maicly of the Red, Assinibolne and Saskatchewan rivers,extends through the plains of the territories ss fhrss the base of the Rocky Mountains and fertilises a -region whose capabilities for tbe production of mods are prob ably not surpassed on this continent Tbe niountainous country to the north i��f Take Superior is rich in gold, cop per, nickel and other valuable mineral**, which are already auractnu' the attention of enterprise in Europe snd America. The gold mines of British Colombia are most productive and tbe great bulk of tbe precious metal still Ilea buried in the rocks of thst immense Province. The coal mines of Vancouver island have no rivals on the Pacific Coast while those of Nova Scotia and the Terrl tories are capable of infinite development Tbe treasure of gold now st tracting capital snd people to the dreary country through whicii tlic Yukon and Irs tributaries flow new seems to be Inexhanatible, and must sdd largely to the population and wealth of the Dominion, which, year by year, sees its resources increasing In extent and value.

Hitherto a great many people have come to the Dominion, but a very large percentage of them have only remained in the country for a short time before joining the army of Canadians who sought opportunities in the United States that seemed to* be denied them at borne. The consequence has been that while the population of Canada has inci-eaaed steadily, tbe gain has not been at all rapid. Bat of late there haa been a tailing off in tbe exodus of native Canadians, together with s greater influx of Europeans and a Urge? percentage of tbe latter have remained with us. There has also been a notice- movement of people from tbe United States to tbe Dominion, and at tbe present rate of progress tbe next census ought to show a very notable increase in population. this is cauaed to a great extent by the change in economic conditions in tbe United State*. Tbe emigrant is no longer welcomed in the domain of Uncle Sam. The agricultural land thete is practically all taken up. -The labor organisations nave secured severe legislation to protect themselves from indiscriminate competition .and tbe intending emigrant is closely scrutinised and often unceremonioualy rejected. On tbe other hand Canada has come to the front with aatoniabing rapidity. Tbe Diamond Jubilee festivities served to concentrate tbe attention of Europe upon tbe Dominion and this notice was intensified by the news of tbe gold dtecorories. Confirming and atrengtbeniog the growing belief of the people of Europe in Canada, came reports laat fall of a bountiful crop, and hundroda, probably thousands, of letter* went across the Atlantic from colonist* on tbe prairies, telling of how well they bad farad in tbe hand of their ailoption. AH this will militate to our advantage. Tbe inooming tide will of course not bo all desirable in its cliaracter. The suttlera from Central Europe will naturally seek tbejpnrariea. They will settle hi colonissao aa to svoid isolation among a people who speak an unfamiliar langu sge. The people from tbe United Kingdom will in very many esses ssek the older provinces and British Columbia may expect to come in lor a Urge share. As means of communication are opened through that province the fertile valleys of tbe mainland and adjacent to the mining camps will be occupied. Hitherto the majority of tboae who have gone into tbe interior have aimed at doing something directly or indirectly connected with mining. Comparatively few have intended to devote themselves to farming. And yet if a man's object is to make a living and leave hia family comfortably provided for, be will be much more likely to do so in British Columbia hy taking a good piece of Und near a mining centre ami terming it intelligently, than by pursuing the tickle goddeae with a prospector's pick in his hand*. Better mean* of communication are needed to enable farmer* to make the most of such opportunities, but the*** have been arranged for and will soon he provided, Mid with the steady eipanaion of our transportation facilities will come the exploitation of the thouaanda of scree of tortile Und thus brought within reach of a market. ���*4 Talk AgwiMt L#it*w. children is an enormoualy rich youna man far away in Chicago.

The Saturday Feview: Tbe scarcity of wheat bas forced up the price in England to 55s a quarter, and the pries of bread U following the price of grain by leap* snd bounds. To tbe poorest classes in England this advance in bread will un doubtedly cause considerable Buffering, but in France the price ia already much higher, snd the people, having a lower standard of wages, are suffering more severely.

The Traoai to Klondike. .1* A Western States contemporary. discussin*; the volume of thte traffic, siieaks as fellows : The extravagant guesses as to the m mount of traffic to the Klondike thi* sprint? have come fbr from being realized. So light has been the travel, in fact, that railroad men are wondering if it has been worth the three month's tight with* the Can- ad is n Pacific and the loss of revenue on regular business consequent upon the reductions niade apon all western lines and the Grand Trunk. 'During the winter many railroad men made personal visits to the north Pacific coast points to ascertain the probable volomn of Alaska traffic Almost without exception they )4ac- i-d the total at 15Q000 to 200.000 Since began, accnrate count tins beea kept on all pasawngers on all ivf-ats going to Alaska ports. Up to had not reached 2��V000. It U conceded that the rush to bow over, and the best evidence of this la the fact thst the bout lines have reduced their rates $10 a ticket. Hence 90, 000 will BKM-e than cover the entire traffic lor the season, exclusive of thst which wont overland, and which is very small. "For thi* bn^nes* tr*u*c<mtii.��-ntei rate* were reduced more than 00 per cent., the fare from ���**.

The above quoted ilgures, however, appear to represent the ***fti mated volomn of traffic linking Yukon wards Irons United Stat*** l-ort*. and nut to Include British 0*1* ii in Ida traffic. There hat, moreover. heen a considerable though reduced a moil nt of travel since April Nt, ���-specially via Vancouver and Vkv h��ria. Hence, probably, taking the travel to date and I nc I ml in.' that which has gone via British Goluinbia. the Klondike pas*engi*r traffic in i*��H may be placed, we think, without exaggeration, at about ftd.000. of whom at least 9,000 have gone north via Vancouver, Victoria, Aahcr.-ft or Kamloops, most, of exMirae, travelling through Vancouver or Victoria. There is no preaetit sign of any great nish of travel to the Klondike, and it seems quite certain that all our advance estimatee of aa emigration thither of at least 150,000 persons this season must be largely discounted. Our western contemporary'a estimate of 30,000 to, however, as we Mated, considerably exceeded .... .^���.������..-.^���.li'.Np' *vn*~.��-��w will no doubt he a revival of movement north wards, at least 50,000 people will have male for the Yukon country We do not, however, now anticipate that the aggregate of northern gold th-ldt emigration will exceed G0.0O) persons in all.

It the transportation companies wish to letain their business they should make a reduction in the transportation rate of horses to the Stick - ine. Without horses a man cannot ��jt through over the 160 miles from lenora to Teslin lake. The trail even then is not in very good shape for man or beast. The Mackenzie- Mann outfit hsve about six miles of wagon road built. Glenora is a tent town hot the city will be about tour miles (hither down the river.
